NO BORDERS MEDIA: La CAQ et le racisme au Québec:

Une discussion post-élection et avant la Manif contre le racisme

Avec Safa Chebbi (porte-parole de la manif), Simon (du Collectif Emma Goldman de Saguenay), Maxim Fortin (militant antiraciste de Québec) et Jaggi Singh (No Borders Media)

-> Écoutez l'émission ici: https://soundcloud.com/nobordersmedia/caqracisme

Vous écoutez No Borders Media. Lors de cette émission enregistrée après les élections québécoises du 1er octobre et avant la Grande Manifestation contre le racisme du 7 octobre, quatre camarades antiracistes discutent de la politique au Québec.

Notre discussion comprend Safa Chebbi de Montréal, Simon du Collectif Emma Goldman à Saguenay, Maxim Fortin de Québec, et Jaggi Singh de No Borders Media.

Pendant une heure, nous discutons et partageons nos points de vue sur l'élection de la CAQ, la normalisation du racisme au Québec, et les collaborations antiracistes pan-québécoises. Nous répondons à des questions fondamentales telles que si le CAQ peut être considéré comme d'extrême droite ou non, et nous essayons d'aborder des sujets plus complexes, tels que les différentes formes de nationalisme québécois et l'angle mort concernant le racisme.

Cette discussion a été enregistrée dans la nuit du 3 octobre 2018 pour No Borders Media.

No Borders Media News Round-up Podcast #4: The election of the CAQ & Racism in Quebec

A political discussion with Safa Chebbi, Maxim Fortin & Jaggi Singh

-> Listen to the podcast here: https://soundcloud.com/nobordersmedia/electioncaq

In this No Borders Media audio dispatch, recorded two days after the results of the Quebec elections, three left-wing racialized organizers discuss the current political situation in Quebec. Safa Chebbi (Montreal), Maxim Fortin (Quebec City) & Jaggi Singh (Montreal) provide their thoughts about the election of the Coalition Avenir Quebec (CAQ) and resisting racism.

This interview, recorded after another 1-hour podcast in French, is intended for English-speaking listeners all over North America who want to know some of the basics about contemporary Quebec politics and racism. Some questions we discuss:

- Is the new CAQ government in Quebec far-right? (Short answer: No.)

- Will the new CAQ government pander to the far-right and help normalize racism? (Short answer: Yes.)

- Does Quebec have a blindspot when it comes to dealing with racism? (Short answer: Yes and no.)

We also discuss grassroots organizing against racism in Montreal and Quebec City. This discussion was recorded late on October 3, 2018, for No Borders Media.

No Borders Media News Roundup Podcast #3

Resisting the right-wing Ford government and the far-right in Ontario

A conversation with Toronto-area left-wing activists Desmond Cole, Niloofar Golkar, Syed Hussan & Sharmeen Khan

-> Listen to the podcast here: https://soundcloud.com/nobordersmedia/torontonewsroundup

-----

On this No Borders Media News Roundup, recorded late on September 25, 2018, we focus on politics in Toronto and Ontario, looking closely at resistance to the right-wing Ford government.

We hear from a panel of four Toronto-area left-wing activists, organizers and political commentators: Desmond Cole, Niloofar Golkar, Syed Hussan and Sharmeen Khan.

Over the course of a more than one-hour conversation, we explore the regressive changes already brought in by the Ford government, and the possibilities of resistance to his agenda. We look critically at the demobilizing role of the NDP and big labour, but also hopefully at examples of grassroots self-organizing, from the recent high school walkout to Black Lives Matter and the Fight for Fifteen campaign.

We raise the alarm bells about the increased normalization of the racist far-right in Ontario, as exemplified by the discourse of candidates running all over the Greater Toronto Area and the Golden Horseshoe. There's some kudos one progressive Toronto mayoral candidate, but focus on non-electoral rooted resistance to meaningfully disrupt the right-wing and far-right agenda.

This is a No Borders Media audio dispatch. This past Friday, September 21, 2018, tens of thousands of high school students in Ontario, from close to 100 schools, walked out of their classes in protest against regressive changes to sexual education as well as other curriculum changes proposed and implemented by the right-wing Doug Ford Conservative government. The walkout was called: We The Students Do Not Consent, and was inspired, partially, by high school organizing in the USA.

For an insider view, No Borders Media speaks with three Toronto-area high school students who helped to organize and participated in the walkout: Thea Baines, 17, Benjamin Doll, 19, and Amina Vance,17.

Together, Thea, Benjamin and Amina provide background to the origins of the walkout, standing together for all students including queer and trans youth, the behind-the-scenes organizing and coordination between students from close to 100 schools, and how it felt to successfully organize a walkout that mobilized thousands.

They also reflect on organizing challenges and look ahead to the alliances and strategies necessary to defeat the socially and economically right-wing agenda of the Ford government.

This interview was recorded on September 23, 2018, by Jaggi Singh for No Borders Media.
